Chazz Kaskes

A Seattle-based improv actor, teacher, and storyteller with over fifteen years of experience on stage and behind the scenes. I am a long-time ensemble member and instructor with Unexpected Productions, where I have performed and taught since 2009, helping new and seasoned performers alike find confidence, presence, and joy through improv.

My performance career spans festivals, theaters, and immersive environments. I have appeared with Book-It Repertory Theatre, SecondStory Repertory, and the Renaissance-inspired troupe No Parchment Needed, and am the founder of Clergy of Errors, a company dedicated to character-driven, interactive performance. As a professional Game Master, I run story-rich tabletop experiences through CK Devon and Open Door Games, blending my improv expertise with narrative design.

At the heart of all my work, whether in the classroom or the festival stage, I believe that creativity grows from trust, presence, and the courage to play.
